N. Korea: The Close-up View of Suspected Nuclear Test Site (3 photos)
Chosun Ilbo ^ | 08/21/06

At first, the photos would not be seen. To see them properly, click the following link first, which will bring you to the source site, followed by pushing "back" button of your browser. You will see that photos appear properly here:

http://brd3.chosun.com/brd/view.html?tb=BEMIL085&pn=6&num=72541

Note: The source site has a protection mechansim against displaying its photos in another site by using their URL's. That is why I ask you to do the steps above.

The locations marked with number 1 and 2 make up the suspected nuclear test site. The description on each location follows in the next two photos.

The location marked with number 1 has on the right what appeared to be a helipad and on the left, lodging for VIP's who would view the test.

The location marked with number 2 also has two noteworthy places. The one above is what is suspected to be an entrance to the tunnel leading to the underground detonation site. The one below could be a storage facility for tunnel construction equipments.

This is from a military-related site affiliated with Chosun Ilbo. What is your take on this guy's interpretation?

I can see them at the url. Looks very interesting. The helipad looks pretty clear. Not sure about the purpose of the other notations, but he could very well be correct.

Thanks. Yes, clicking through and then coming back DOES cause the photos to be visible on FR as you explained and instructed.

I tried the trick with the back button.

It didn't work.

It should work. I tried it more than a dozen times now, and it has not failed. Try again.

Didn't work for me either.
There is another way but I don't have time to play now. I saved the photos with arbitrary names for viewing later.

I gave it quite a few whacks to no avail. It may be my security settings.

I have cable, and the "back" button seems to be disabled when trying the "trick".
Saving the images with the proper names in the same folder as the article should work, but I don't have time to try that now.

Good thought. No joy.

I think your "technique" for seeing these photos will put a Korean cookie on my machine.

Re #18

That is possible. You have to manually clean them up, I guess.:)
